Title: Woke Hollywood Can't make good movies.

They cannot stand the classics for their 'whiteness.'
will it come to this: The classics remastered with People of Color replacing original actors and inserted with computer graphics?

All we can do is not watch and let the current-craze die-off.  It will. 

You hit on computer graphics (computer-graphic imaging).  That's an equally undigestible component to modern movie-making when it's overused.

It looks like IMDB deleted it, but there's a Sammy Davis Jr. World War 2 movie from around 1970, where he plays an infrantryman caught-up in a German espionage-plot.  Davis' unit is infiltrated with a spy, who's systematically murdering the team.

Davis isn't sure who it is, but he accidentally pisses-off a teammate who reacts by calling him a 'Niger', like the River (or German-pronunciation of the 'N-word'). 

Davis machineguns the guy, yelling:  " Nyjer?!!  It's Ni*************er!!!!! "  And the movie ends. 

It's a pretty powerful scene, that sort of trumps Jim Brown in Dirty Dozen and Carl Weathers in Force 10 From Navarone.
